Master Xingyun: Buddha's heart is equal

Han people 2023-08-10

Buddha's heart equality

One day, the Buddha took Ananda to the city of Shravas and when the Buddha walked to the outskirts of the city, he saw Niti, who was hired to carry manure for others, coming from the opposite side.

Niti actually admired the Buddha very much in his heart, but he was very inferior and always felt that he was a pariah with deep sins, so he wanted to avoid it when he saw the Buddha from afar.The Buddha knew Neti's intentions, so he sent Ananda to leave first and took a detour to meet with Neti.

Niti was so nervous that he hid in the world, but instead knocked over the feces bucket. The road was covered with foul feces. He was so panicked that he was at a loss. He quickly knelt on the side of the road, put his hands together and apologized to the Buddha, "Buddha!I'm so sorry."

「Niti!Get up quickly."

Niti wondered about his ears and thought to himself, "Will the Buddha call my name?I really can't imagine it in my dreams."

The Buddha asked him kindly again: "Nitti!You will become a monk with me now, okay?"

Niti was shocked and replied, "I am a lowly and dirty person. Are you qualified to become a monk with you?I heard that your monastic community is full of royal clans of the Jadeli and Brahmin practitioners. Can I be your disciple like them?"

The Buddha smiled and said, "Nitti!Nothing happened.My Dharma is like pure running water, which can clear away all filth;My Dharma is like a blazing fire that can burn all ignorance;My Dharma is like a deep and vast ocean, and it can tolerate anything.In my Dharma, the rich and poor, the noble and the inferior, the nature, the nature, and the class are all false names, because our flesh is the physical body that combines the four elements and five aggregates. If we do not have wisdom and do not practice, no one can be saved."

After hearing this, Niti happily followed the Buddha to become a monk and study Taoism.
